Patent CA-2608742-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RODRIGUES CARVALHO AGOSTINHO A
IPC: C12N15/09
Filed: 2006-05-16
Abstract: The present invention describes a novel molecular method based on the polimerase chain reaction (PCR) in a multiplex variant in order to detect and identify Candida species with clinical relevance, namely C. albicans, C.  glabrata, C. krusei, C. parapsilosis, C. tropicalis, C. guilliermondii, C.  lusitaniae e C. dubliniensis. The strategy uses the existence of sequences, whether conserved or variable, in fungal ribosomal genes and in the use of a combination of universal primers, specific for fungi, and internal primers, specific for each one of the Candida species (Figure 1). In this sense, two fragments from the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of the ribosomal RNA (rRNA) are amplified by multiplex PCR, allowing the easy identification of the Candida species in question. This methodology allows a rapid, effective and low-cost identification of Candida species with clinical relevance, bearing several advantages over the currently available diagnostic methods.

Patent CA-2614773-A1 (CA)
Title: Pallet clamping device
Inventor: HAVERFIELD FORREST A
IPC: B66F9/18
Filed: 2006-07-12
Abstract: A pallet clamping device (100) is mounted between forks (202) of a material handling vehicle (200). The device clamps to a stringer of a pallet using a pair of horizontally moveable jaws (102, 108). The jaws are resiliently forced toward one another for clamping a stringer so that a clamped pallet will not move off the forks. The jaws are mounted for pivoting and sliding motion relative to mounting pins (106, 112) which, together with links (143) coupling the jaws to a base (142) of the device, tighten jaw closure if a pallet moves away from the forks. The pivoting and sliding motion of the jaws helps align the jaws with pallets not perfectly aligned with the vehicle. Depression of a foot pedal (120) moves the jaws from a closed position to a latched open position for receiving a pallet stringer. The jaws can also be moved to an unlatched open position for receiving a greater width center stringer.  Upon release of the operating device from the unlatched open position, the jaws move toward their closed position.

Abstract: A process and apparatus for continuously stripping or recovering values from a value bearing material, typically a slurry or solution thereof. The resin an d value bearing material are contacted in a counter-current manner (242, 246) in a contact zone (254, 220, 222) to load the resin with values from the value bearing material. The resin is fluidised by the value bearing material in th e contact zone. The loaded resin is passed through a first washing zone (256, 224) to displace excess value bearing material. The loaded resin then passes through a stripping zone (258, 228, 226), typically an acid or alkali, to strip the values from the resin and form an eluate, which is treated further to recover the values. The stripped resin is washed in a second washing zone (260, 230), to displace excess stripping agent, and returned to the contact zone.
